In the dark and mysterious world of Closure, only what you see exists. Manipulate lights to phase objects in and out of reality in this multiple-award-winning puzzle game. Play as a strange spider-like demon who explores the stories of three human characters through beautiful, eerie environments such as a decrepit factory, a murky forest, an abandoned carnival, and the strange, surreal realm that connects them together.

In Closure you will find challenging puzzles based on special orbs of light which you play with in a strategic way to reach the end of each level . It's got original and funny graphics along with a great soundtrack as well.

What if there is only what you can see? What if nothing exist in the dark and existence is only in the light? Cannot go through the wall? You can if you don't see it. ;) It's a brilliant concept and if you like puzzle games and unique ideas you will love this game. And wait till you hear the music and see all the art behind. Go for it, buy it, enjoy it.

If I can’t see it, it doesn’t exist. This is pretty much the premise of the game and it is executed to very good effect. Closure is a puzzle platformer in which you are a weird little creature with no face, running about in the dark, and clinging desperately to the light so you don’t fall off into nothingness while you try to map out each level and locate the exit. Oh and then you steal some people’s faces or something and solve light based puzzles in their bodies or whatever.

The puzzles themselves are pretty clever. In each new zone you start out with some pretty simple puzzles which gradually introduce new elements to you, but towards the end of the zone you’re having to work out some pretty complicated stuff. The way these puzzles work is that walls and floors do not exist in the dark, so you have to position lamps and orbs of light about the place to let you do stuff like pass through a wall and not fall through the floor into the abyss, or maybe ride a spotlight up a wall to the exit. It’s a bit weird at first really, but definitely an innovative twist on the standard puzzle platformer. One thing I really like about Closure as a puzzle platformer is that it doesn’t just delight in killing you for no reason (unlike certain other dark puzzle platformers). Every level has a good sense of logic about it that you could probably work out without dying if you were careful and really thought about it; Closure doesn’t resort to tricking you into dying, that’s just not its style. The fact that Closure puts such a weighting on logic rather than trickery or trial and error (though I did have many trial an error moments trying to get my head around some of the harder puzzles) means that every level completed comes with a strong sense of accomplishment, as opposed to other puzzle platformers which only provide the feeling that you’re glad it’s over before you walk into the next ridiculous trap.

The music that accompanies the game is top notch and really adds to the atmosphere of the game. Closure even makes use of some Tuban throat singing, which I don’t think I’ve heard in a game before, but it works really well for the existential and slightly creepy theme that Closure has going on.

There is one thing that I would warn people about with this game, and that is that I encountered a really weird bug playing this game on my new laptop (Windows 8.1 with integrated intel graphics) which caused light to not interact with surfaces properly and made me perpetually fall through the floor and die even though it was lit up – it was a game breaker. I’ve also played this game on a rather old laptop (dedicated graphics, Linux) and on my main PC (dedicated graphics, Windows 7) and on both machines the game runs perfectly. From what I can tell the devs seem pretty active and willing to help resolve any issues but since this problem only affected 1 of my 3 devices and I was so close to finishing when I tried it on my new laptop I didn’t bother getting it sorted out.

I have absolutely no recollection of purchasing Closure, which has added to the mystery of the game for me. I’m just glad I did buy it (if I did buy it) and then happened to stumble across it in my game library. This is truly one of those hidden gem type games and I would definitely recommend it.

First impression:Get this week's Humble Bundle strictly for this game (also The Bridge)(and NaissanceE)(and Dominique Pamplemousse)(and Betrayer)(and some Mac game)(and Neverending Nightmares)It's a good thing White Night came out recently, else we might not have had this Bundle! :3Uh uh uh Sin City! Yeah, I knew I could think of another one :P

This is a puzzle-platformer. You carry around orbs of light to progress. If you drop your light and then try to move, you fall; Darkness swallows you. That is the puzzle mechanic - you have to figure how to traverse and progress while usually having to carry a Key with you. How do you set the light up so you have a clear path to the exit?

You start the game as some weird hooded four-legged thing. You come across a skull with a quill sticking from it(?) and you turn into a female. You wake up beside a burning car. One of the Achievements is called Welcome to Purgatory (IDK why I bothered with hiding that spoiler, it's clear for all to see but whatever). This is another one of those Limbo-esque things. Get it while it's on Humble Bundle.

I have played this for about an hour and a half, i must say this game is like no other. The music is great and the graphics are acceptable, the gameplay has a nice flow to it and the controls are simple. In this puzzle game the rule is simple, stay in the light. Without light there is nothingness and you will have to restart if fallen. do not destroy you light source, and that;s it. Very creative props to the dev! i give a 9/10 due to the price but still worth it!
